Title: Internal pole system
Post by: windowcleaninginessex.co.uk on July 30, 2012, 03:06:22 pm
Whats the best or should I say cheapest indoor pole sysem.
Been looking at Dragonfly Internal Cleaning System With 20ft Facelift Pole, but but at £500, or £600 with vat, seems bit expensive.
Has any one made their own or is there a cheaper version.
Thanks
Darren

Wagtail on a stick.  It's well worth the time it takes to practise with it.

Tosh I take it, you mean pole, not stick.
If you use this method how high have you gone, I will be working at about 28ft. Never used a wagtail before, its the mop and squeegee in one, I suppose its basically the same as cleaning inside windows when you catch all water  by following the squeegee with the mop, or is there a different method to using the wagtail.

Years ago when I had a job with a high inside glass wall, I used to use a unger pole, wet the glass with mop then change to a squeegee and just use downward strokes, it worked but wasn't great.
Thanks

I've never used it at 28 ft either, so I'll shut up.

(Works fine at 15 feet though).
